WLTOYS a959 Steering mod

thingiverse

EDIT: V2 added. This updated version really does improve steering accuracy and range! You will need to spin your servo around 180 degrees. Print all the v2 parts as well as the v1 top plate. The pivots require the metal inserts from the stock parts. See it in action here: https://youtu.be/B8D6X4XsdpI For the WLtoys A959, e.g.: https://bit.ly/35NQ2e9 Based on upon, but a heavily modified version of the steering mod here https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3823562 and the top plate here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2807377. The idea is to have better steering with more steering range than the stock steering on the Wltoys A959 etc. The top plate has been modified, both to make more space for the steering, but also to be removed in parts to make working on the car easier and to make space for a larger 540 motor. Honestly - I've no idea if this is much better than the stock steering as I have not done a direct comparison, but given how bad the stock steering is it can't be much worse! You may need some longer M2 screws than the ones that come out of the stock parts and you'll need a couple of M3 screws to screw the top plate together. I've printed in PC and its held up well to crashes that have broken other parts. I suspect will be fine in ABS, not sure about PLA or PETG - let me know!
